tonight the fraternity will only be create the universities best pedigrees. graham has been an essay member since two thousand and ten he knows the selection ritual well. for the house of answer or else an event. we started a short history. there you go. the atmosphere is rather relaxed everybody's trying to make a good impression you're going to take away the house in a couple of guys together although you're. good for their candidates the first visit is only the beginning of a long process selection hazing initiations to get a place here they will have to get through what are sometimes violent challenges but not tonight discouraging the contenders is out of the question their attack is still focused on the competing for eternity but for how far down the street they're

building this new house it's going to feel like one hundred square feet here in ars just to be bigger than ours but they're doing it like a two million dollar west budgets are struggling here for the fraternity is operate with huge budgets entry for the sposi students cost between one thousand to three thousand euros a year. the wealth of these fraternities is mainly gifted to them by former members it's you know kind of like a a suite almost for two people but. benefactors who will become sponsors of these students one scratch away to sell this is a fraternities main strength building a professional network to get radio in jordan there. is a presence around that's kind of his role model. these fraternities are mainly hope to young white anglo-saxon americans. it's a great way of continuing a system of the elite and privileges spencer the time they are a very bad place to hang out. yes. the student in the red shirt gets

a slightly warm up welcome spencer is a different kind of candidate to the athletes. though i mean you know that i feel as i do my big head. you know. you know it's. right there at the s.a.e. house spencer is already a little at home. his place in the house is reserved it's a family heirloom. here. very very secure. you prefer. their preferences. or its territory. at the university of kentucky twenty five fraternities share the campus and the pick of the students quite apart from their parent teaches him they also indulge in fierce competition in terms of pot and alcohol. what's up both.

for and this is what gives a fraternity its reputation these nights of heavy drinking at the end of the afternoon and the campus delta sigma fi house has already started to party thirty more pitchers. delta is saying this is a new channel twenty two he's organizing the feeling he's in charge of the fraternity social life his mission for the days to motivate those who are choosing the new members and they begin by going over the classics. a series of great joy. it is a good investment the net is better says i i knew that it was there was a booklet for turning it gets a rally and we chant this song and yeah y'all. russia or delo. yeah but it's welcome like the wealthy well you know that we're still stuck

up out of all these much obituaries have only one objective she not the potus for life who i would post reminded me i was up by a good by rise was even though i thought i would go forward to. aside from the camaraderie the fraternities also have another purpose too and i will die members to me go. this is mary gearin she's about to make out with t. ball thank their favorite targets aren't waitresses but so far two students the female equivalent to fraternities on campus thank you thank you nine pm and the deltas at a house the party is in full swing. thank you thank you among the thirty you so excited goes we see ciano down to six party guy.

he's come on a scouting mission thanks. god that's our doing. thank you thank you thank you thank you to be on campus fraternities and sororities form a single community one big dating club the students from good families where everything goes thank you thank you thank you what happens here stays here was thank you god thank you thank you i normally it's the fraternity is that host the sorority so that these young ladies don't have to pay each fraternity member contributes two hundred dollars perturb it is all done to encourage making connections times with frat parties it's free however how i. told her it was like the only guys who really associates are hearing

this are already pretty much only talk to her right really boys yeah yeah i'm. sure you did there is you play live with them and your friends are dating guys who are the charities and like that's just what you do but then we only make fun of can we can make fun of like yeah people who are nice or it may have a name and g i which is means i mean depending. on american campuses academic success relies on integration into these elite societies to get in some students will do everything even the most barbaric afresh the initiation. peacekeeping when it was only about maintaining peace between states as an essentially symbolic value when you have militias when you have criminal groups. the symbol is not enough you need robust force.

economic development is all about numbers really pleased to report this quarter we are one hundred six points. but what do we know about the other figures. when i think about the fact that our c.e.o. might do. over twenty million dollars last year more than one thousand times the average wal-mart associate. with all due respect i have to say i don't think that's right. just our free market works. people went from pretty simple financial lives pre nine hundred eighty to the point now where people are. just totally submerged in their financial. and they're all in debt and what exactly divided society from the whatever the government tried

to do it wasn't necessary maybe. it might be making things worse. by saying this is not how capitalism works this is. hopelessly designer strictly rome. and with the with me and all those get a little bit because it was. the most i knew but i you. know it wasn't it but i guess i kind of it was. just you know he refused to go in that the city. where they. he will get it's just a good area for immigrants it's. never really know for sure but this has been

a active area. thank you so i. know. when i started knowing. that. we had to have no phone the east coast of the united states. we have to document one of the oldest american universities. upon leaving its graduates all among the country's top six highest salaries. that and promotional images of an elite campus without history where one out of every two students is a member of a fraternity. was one of them just like his grandfather and brother before him let's start there and then over here. too so actually every time every time i want

to go to sleep it's like underneath. the student isn't bitter however his initiation nearly killed him. they spared him nothing this was actually the night of rush everyone gets kidnapped and taken to this other spot where they don't know where they are. going to chug a lot of six cups of beer you know as fast as you can the first person who gets into the russian loses and then the winner. in contrast to the principle of support among fraternities hazing or fresh the initiation is a time of and this humiliation about the vomit a couple pledges vomit into a pan and one of the pleasures cracked you know eggs and cheese and big hit in the oven and on the plane. and you're a snow angel he has inflicted upon others the very same tortures he did out says before daring to testify about them in one of america's biggest magazines rolling stone confessions of an angry frat boy among these confessions there is something

that nobody has forgotten when i first saw the kiddie pool it was like a shock people vomited in people your news. people are jocular. the year before someone defra kid the pleasures were swimming around in your like baptized at dartmouth his confession exploded like a bomb but once the scandal was over the university tried to bury the matter i tried to get them to investigate and they never did in a real way if you really want to know what i think yeah it is some money. you know there were the alumni who give the most you know a lot of them are in for tourney's and a lot of them are well some of them are on the board of trustees or were on the board of trustees and. you know millions of dollars changes hands. andrew left dartmouth before graduating even though he survived the fraternity

evening of the hazing. the university itself is not involved the tragedy took place off campus. a man was nineteen years old he was the only child from jack a merriam's remarriage. and this is just before he went to college and the long hair was an a student. he was very smart very capable. among wanted to be a doctor but on the twenty eighth of february two thousand and nine history mz were crushed his hazing turned into a tragedy after he was very very drunk and that he was trying to stop drinking the care. pouring a bucket down the straw that's when the. party disband that they took my simple already had passed out and they took him up to the house and. put him to bed. they hit me i'm they just they really they left him there and he just i. but i almost
